Host: How should this align with my mission and values?

Gary Ryan Blair: Resolutions need to align really perfectly with your mission, with our values, with your own personal constitution of code of ethics. Your missions statement answers the question why do I exist? That's an important questions for anybody to answer regardless of what age.

But you need to give reason for your existence. When it comes to your values they are need to be symmetry in values so that what you say and what you do. Your walk must model your talk. It has to be consistent.

As you forge your resolutions come into play, it needs to harmonize with those other two components. So it has to speak to your mission statement and it has to be in alignment with your core values. If it's not, you are going to have some type of value contradiction. Some type of breakdown. So it's comparative to disharmony.
